The major problem is that the work of an LLM has a massive number of hidden ‘assumptions’ that you need to be aware of. If you don’t already have a good working knowledge of the task you wont have an intuition about those assumptions. It’s annoying.
Yeah, and for those who don’t know, the rationalization output of the LLM is just so pursuasive. It sounds quietly confident and rattles off things that sound like real details.
